Chapter 157: Lin Chen's Teachings

Level 1 Talisman Sword Gang can absorb 6,000 points of damage, and when it was promoted to level 51 in the Abyss Lair, there was one more skill point that Lin Chen had not yet assigned, and this time it happened to smash on the skill of Talisman Sword Gang, and the Level 2 Talisman Sword Gang had become able to absorb 8,000 points of damage.

Now Lin Chen's own attack power is about 2,000, which means that under the premise of Lin Chen's attack, without using skills, the condensed talisman sword gang can withstand about four attacks.

Talisman Sword Gang has such a benefit, if it does not exceed the extreme damage it can bear, it will not shatter, plus all the sword immortal skills of the Killing Sword +1, in fact, in essence, the Talisman Sword Gang has reached the point of level 3, and can absorb 10,000 points of damage.

"Knock knock knock ......", just when Lin Chen had just assigned the skill points, suddenly, the door of the trial room was gently knocked, and at the same time, the voice of the staff sounded outside the door, "Mr. Lin Chen, Miss Iseline is looking for you, I have already taken her to the third reception room."

"She's coming?" , Hearing Iseline's visit, Lin Chen was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, there were only two things for her visit, either because of Xia Lu's investigation, or because of the matter of the Holy Light Crystal, thinking of this, Lin Chen put away the murderous sword in his hand, and after sorting it out, he walked out of the trial room.

"Why are you here? Has Xia Lu's matter been investigated? When he came to the reception room and saw Xia Lu sitting in the reception room, Lin Chen asked, saying that he had also done the opposite side of Iselin.

Hearing Lin Chen talk about Xia Lu's matter as soon as they met, Isleen was a little embarrassed, the matter of people asking her for help, so far she has not investigated any clues, but now she has to come to ask others for help, however, thinking of the importance of the Holy Light Crystal, Isleen can't care so much.

"Actually, I'm here today because I want to ask you for help," an embarrassed look flashed, and Isleen spoke.

"Oh? Can I help? I don't know what's going on? Hearing Iseline's words, Lin Chen spoke, pretending not to know anything.

"That's the case, when I was in the Abyssal Lair, I ......", Itherine carefully told Lin Chen what happened in the Abyssal Lair, about how the Holy Light Crystal fell into the hands of the Phantom Sovereign, Itherine didn't lie in the slightest, "So, I came this time to ask you to help me get the Holy Light Crystal back, and only you can help with this matter."

"So, do you want me to help you ask the old man for something?" , Frowning slightly, Lin Chen thought secretly, as if he was very embarrassed.

And Iseline looked at him nervously, the Holy Light Crystal could only come back from Lin Chen as a breakthrough, otherwise, who could get back the strength of the Phantom Monarch's Seven Grades of the Holy Domain?

"That's ......", after pondering for a while, Lin Chen finally decided to look at Iselin and said, "When you help me investigate Xia Lu's matter clearly, I'll help you get the Holy Light Crystal back, how about it?" ”。

"You don't know that person from my mentor, although he is very willing to give me something, but if you give something to others, he must be willing to pay something from others, you help me investigate Xia Lu's matter clearly, and it can be regarded as helping me pay, my mentor believes that he is willing to take it out, otherwise, if he knows that it is given away for nothing, he will definitely not be willing."

Thinking that when she was in the abyssal lair, the Phantom Lord had to exchange her things before she was willing to return the Holy Light Crystal to herself, and Iseline had no doubts about Lin Chen's words.

Besides, he had already promised Lin Chen to handle Xia Lu's affairs well, and since Lin Chen proposed to return the Holy Light Crystal to himself after he had done this matter well, it was naturally the best for Iseline.

"Thank you, I originally said that I would help you, but now it has become such a ......", although she was very happy with Lin Chen's proposal, but at the same time, she also felt a little embarrassed, she originally said that she would help herself, but at this time, it became a transaction again.

"It's nothing, when you get things done, I'll give you the Holy Light Crystal", Lin Chen waved his hand and said indifferently for Iseline's apology, for Lin Chen, the most important thing is to handle Xia Lu's affairs properly.

Since he accepted Xia Lu as a disciple, then, Xia Lu's matter is his own business, when he was in the abyssal lair, Lin Chen refused to return the Holy Light Crystal to Iseline, for this matter, although I don't know what kind of power is behind Iterine, but it must be very big.

Since the Holy Light Crystal is so important, and it can't be grabbed in the hands of the Phantom Monarch, it will naturally use itself as a breakthrough, Iselin is alone in the army, and she can't investigate Xia Lu's matter, and if she wants to come to Xia Lu's matter, it must be related to a big conspiracy, even if Itharine's ability can't investigate the clues.

So what now? If you want to get the Holy Light Crystal in your hand, you have to help me find out the matter, and at this time, Iselin will definitely ask the forces behind her to come out, and similarly, since the Holy Light Crystal is so important, the big forces behind Itherine will also come out.

What is unclear to Iseline investigating alone, and the huge force behind her, can't she investigate clearly? If this is really the case, Lin Chen will have nothing to say, but judging from Lin Chen's thoughts, it is almost impossible, a holy light crystal can be exchanged for Xia Lu's truth, Lin Chen feels that it is worth it.

Regarding the matter between the Holy Light Crystal and Xia Lu, after Lin Chen and Iselin had negotiated, Iselin left the Apothecary Guild in a hurry, and now that the matter of the Holy Light Crystal has been revealed, the anxiety on Iselin's face has completely disappeared, replaced by a happy smile, and a big stone in her heart has been put down, and Iseline is very happy.

"Young Master, what should I do about this matter?" , followed the anxious Iseline to the Apothecary Guild, Jack and Diroke knew that Iseline was here to find Lin Chen, and now, seeing her come out again, and with an unprecedented smile on her face, Diroque asked in a low voice.

Looking at the smile and satisfaction on Itheline's face leaving, Jack's face was gloomy as water, Iseline's surname Jack knew very well, she usually had a straight face, in Jack's memory, the number of times Ethelyn laughed over the years could be counted with one hand, but in this short time, he saw it twice, and both times it was for Lin Chen.

"It seems that this Lin Chen is really a big obstacle!" , I didn't expect that Iselyn would actually come over and have a "tryst" with Lin Chen, and the anger in Jack's heart almost soared to the sky.

No matter how smart a person is, there are death holes, and Jack is just a young man with strong blood, how can he stand it when he sees the woman he likes secretly running over to have a tryst with others?

"What do you mean, young master?" Hearing this, Di Roke's face also sank a little, and he asked, with a chilling murderous intent in his eyes, and at the same time, his palm made a throat wiping movement at the neck, which meant self-evident.

"This is not in a hurry", although he is also angry now, and he can't wait to kill Lin Chen now, but seeing Di Roke's movements, Jack shook his head.

If you have anger in your heart, you will rush directly to kill people, this is the most inferior method, besides, although I think that the Phantom Monarch has more than eighty percent chance of dying in the abyssal lair, but this matter has not been confirmed after all, and things should not be done so arrogantly and absolutely.

"What do you mean, young master?" Looking at Jack's appearance, Diroque asked suspiciously.

"Let him be ruined first, let everyone shout like a dog, and let Ethelyn see her embarrassed appearance first", with gloomy and cold eyes, Jack's mouth said coldly, and a plan slowly emerged in his heart.

After thinking about the plan in his mind, Jack looked up at Diroque and asked, "I remember that the Phantom Monarch became famous and made trouble because of one of the sons of the Prime Minister at the time, right?" The prime minister's son seems to be a very good person in terms of pharmacists? Is it the son of an elder of the Apothecary's Guild? ”。

"Yes, it seems to be like this, could it be that Young Master do you want to make a fuss from this aspect?" Hearing Jack's words, Dirok nodded and asked.

"You said it yourself, a very talented disciple, and the son of the prime minister of the empire, relying on this relationship, he could have risen to prominence, but now that he has been killed, do you say that as an elder of the Apothecary Guild, will there be no resentment?"

"Although because of the strength of the Phantom Monarch, he has to swallow these grievances, but what if Caesar Sword Palace comes forward to draw out this resentment in his heart?" , with the confidence that everything is in his hands on his face, but with a cold look in his eyes, Jack said in a cold voice.

"Okay! I understand, young master, I'm going to find out that elder and see you", for Jack's plan, Di Roque also roughly understood, nodded and said, raised his legs and walked towards the Apothecary Guild, the name of Caesar's Sword Palace, I believe that no one dares not to sell face.

After sending away Iseline, Lin Chen got up and left the reception room, when passing by Xia Lu's room, Lin Chen secretly opened the door and looked, Xia Lu was still practicing the refining methods of several primary potions, and there were a lot of discarded potions next to him, but it seemed that Lin Chen was a little surprised, because Xia Lu's refining techniques had actually improved a lot.

"It seems that my disciple is still very talented", looking at Xia Lu's refining technique, which was already better than before, Lin Chen nodded with satisfaction, and did not disturb her, after Lin Chen gently closed the door, he looked at the sky, and it was almost time for dinner, Lin Chen brought some food, walked directly to the door of Xia Lu's room, and gently pushed the door and walked in.

Xia Lu's forehead, with a layer of fine beads of sweat, looked focused and careful, completely devoted to the refining of the potion, carefully controlled the flames, carefully put in the materials, paid attention to the ratio and reaction of the materials, and she was fully engaged, but she didn't notice that Lin Chen had entered the room.

"Flutter ......", when the reaction of the potion reached the most intense, although Xia Lu had tried her best to control it, but in the end, it was still not controlled, and the potion exploded directly.

Fortunately, Xia Lu has good experience in dealing with the failure of the potion, and the reflex surname has laid a layer of flame protection magic on himself to block these explosive potions, because of this willingness, Xia Lu is extremely easy to use this low-level fire defense magic, and it is easy to come.

Seeing this, Lin Chen thought of the first time he met Xia Lu, it was the same.

"Okay, Xia Lu, relaxation is the best training match, otherwise, it will backfire if you force yourself too much, let's come over for dinner first", seeing that Xia Lu's refining failed, Lin Chen was not angry, but clapped his hands, attracted Xia Lu's attention, and spoke.

"Ahh Mentor ......", awakened by the sound of Lin Chen's clapping, Xia Lu reacted that Lin Chen actually came, a little surprised, and a little flustered, he had been in contact for so long, but he still failed, Xia Lu was a little flustered.

Most of the tutors are strict, adhering to the principle of strict teachers and high apprentices, generally seeing disciples fail, in addition to teaching, they just scold directly, now they have practiced for so long, but not a single potion has been successful, and Lin Chen is still watching from the side, Xia Lu is naturally a little flustered.

"That, I'm sorry, I, I haven't succeeded in refining a potion until now......", with a cramped and uneasy look on his face, Xia Lu stood there and didn't dare to come over, and said with his head down.

"Okay, okay, you've done a good job, come over for dinner", looking at Xia Lu's appearance, Lin Chen beckoned and said, Lin Chen looked at Xia Lu's growth, naturally not to see whether she had successfully refined the potion, but to see her own growth, can she refine the potion? That's just a reflection of measurement, and the growth itself is the most important thing.

"You don't need to comfort me, don't I have a talent for potions? I heard that ordinary people can almost successfully refine some rudimentary-level potions on the first day under the guidance of their mentors, but I still don't have a clue", hearing that Lin Chen didn't blame himself, Xia Lu became even more uneasy, feeling that this was because he had no talent and didn't have any expectations for himself at all, so he didn't get angry.

"Success is 99 percent hard work and 1 percent talent! I have completely seen your efforts, and in my opinion, your talent is no worse than some so-called geniuses", looking at Xia Lu's appearance, Lin Chen said with a smile.

"Success is 99 percent effort plus 1 percent talent?" , For such philosophical words, it was natural to calm Xia Lu at once, chewing Lin Chen's words carefully, Xia Lu felt very reasonable, plus from Lin Chen's mouth that he was also very talented, Xia Lu was very excited: "Really? Am I really talented? ”。

"Regarding this kind of question, I will never joke around, I said that if you have talent, you must have it", with a serious look on his face, Lin Chen said seriously.

"Maybe someone else, under the guidance of the mentor, can barely succeed in refining the most basic potion on the first day, but what about later? Will the mentor still be able to teach him how to refine all the potions in the future? If everything goes according to the path arranged by the teacher, then can the disciple's growth surpass that of the teacher? Isn't that one generation worse than the next? ”。

"As a qualified disciple, the most important thing is that you must have an ambition, or an enlightenment, that is, to study with the goal of surpassing your own guru, otherwise, even if you are a talented disciple, you will not be a qualified disciple."

"To have the goal of surpassing the master, can you be considered a qualified disciple?" , To be honest, Lin Chen's remarks, Xia Lu really haven't heard of it, after all, in this world, if you do the task assigned by your mentor, you will be very successful.

As for the purpose of surpassing the mentor, no one really said it, and no one thought about it, but it was undeniable that Xia Lu knew that what Lin Chen said was indeed very reasonable.

"The reason why I don't teach you how to refine potions is so that you can have your own opinions in the future, everyone is different, in terms of potions, everyone must have their own advantages, as a teacher, I don't have to impose my own things on you, so as to destroy the advantages you should have."

"The role of the guru is just to give you a general direction, and then let you go on your own, instead of teaching you how to follow yourself step by step, too much teaching is actually harming the disciple's ......."

After all, he is a person who has traveled through the 21st century, in the era of the information explosion, Lin Chen, whether it is vision, values, etc., is definitely much more advanced than these people who lived in the era of imperial feudalism, just such a simple remark made Xia Lu deeply shocked.

This kind of remarks has never been heard of by Xia Lu, and it can be said that there are many places that contradict people's thoughts now, but it is undeniable that if you taste it carefully, Xia Lu can find that Lin Chen's words contain a deep philosophy.

"Well, I understand what you mean, I know what I should do", after sinking seriously for a while, he carefully chewed the meaning of Lin Chen's words for a long time, Xia Lu finally understood a little, and his heart relaxed, it turned out that Lin Chen did not give up on himself, so he was not angry at his failure, but his vision was essentially different from others.

"Well, okay, I've been busy all afternoon, let's come over and eat", seeing that Xia Lu finally understood, Lin Chen nodded with a smile and said.

Indeed, as a teacher, the most important thing is not to ask your disciples to go where and when, but how many miles your disciples have traveled more than before, and this is the attitude that a teacher should have towards his disciples.
